2nd Annual Holiday Boutique

Well I am a horrible blog hostess! I think about it, come up with some awesome ideas to talk about, and never seem to get around to it! I apologize and hope that the new year will make me a better blogger, otherwise I'll turn into a blobber!

This post is to invite you to our 2nd annual Holiday Boutique on the farm. We have a lot of new items that we didn't have last year. I am gearing my shop more towards a fiber crafting store and consequently we have Jerry's handmade knitting needles and his yarn winders that I absolutely love! I am contributing some new items that I have designed and made up, scissor holders (called chatelaines), crochet and needle cases to keep all those extra sticks contained together, hand dyed natural fibers, and some neat knitting markers. Along with the usual alpaca yarn I have now enough of my handspun, hand dyed yarns for sale.

We have a new stock of hats from Peru, nice colorful ones that keep you warm and cosy for the cold weather that is about to arrive! Lots of pretty handmade scarves have been added. And of course we have some neat gift items that are unique.

There are also some awesome alpaca christmas cards, specially designed for Aardvark Alpacas by Linda Hornberger, artist extraordinairre!

Oh, also we will be offering handmade goat milk soaps and lotions from El Coyote Ranch, our friends and neighbors (in Texas terms).

So, come on by, have some hot cider, join in the festivities, buy some unique gifts, and spend time visiting with the alpacas. Don't forget to see our newest boy, Waylon Jennings! We can now boast that Aardvark Alpacas is home to Waylon & Willy & the boys - literally!
